Or when a villager you actually really like and want to keep moves right opposite the spot where you want to put your bridge and you can't put it anywhere else along that spot because it's either too close to your house or too close to that villagers house.
You know what? If we're the mayors then Isabelle shouldn't question where we choose to place PWP. We're in charge, after all. And we should choose where we let our villagers move in. Sighs. New Leaf problems. ;_;
Reeaaally hoping that you'll be able to decide where a villager lives in the future. It's a bit farfetched, but a guy can dream.
Ah, I feel you! This is exactly the same thing that happened to me. My town map was perfectly symmetrical until I decided to demolish one of my bridges to change the style only to find out that the cafe was in the way!
I kind of wish there weren't any permanent PWPs, what I'd do to fix my off-centered police station.
